Paresh Rawal’s The Taj Story Under Intense Censor Review; Makers Provide Documents to Validate Historical Claims

‘Taj Story’ starring Paresh Rawal has ignited the nationwide curiosity and conversation ever since the makers, Swarnim Global Services Pvt. Ltd, CA Suresh Jha, writer-director Tushar Amrish Goel and creative Producer Vikas Radhesham, announced the film on the Independence Day occasion. The film features a powerhouse ensemble led by Paresh Rawal, along with Zakir Hussain, Amruta Khanvilkar, Sneha Wagh, Namit Das, Veena Jha, Latika Verma, Swarnim & Sarvagaya, and is said to be a hard-hitting social drama that fearlessly raises one of the most provocative questions of our times.

Adding to its buzz, an industry source talked about the film saying, “The Censor Board took several months to clear the film, given its sensitive content revolving around one of the seven wonders of the world and the untold stories of the Taj Mahal that the film fearlessly dares to explore. During the clearance process, the director and producer were asked to submit extensive proofs and documents to validate the claims and the creative integrity of the project, making its journey to the big screen as dramatic and intense as its premise.”

This rigorous process, while challenging for the makers, has only amplified the anticipation for the film. Industry insiders believe that the extensive scrutiny and eventual clearance by the Censor Board not only validate the film’s authenticity but also set the stage for The Taj Story to emerge as a bold cinematic statement. With its daring narrative and powerful performances, the film is expected to spark widespread debate and dialogue upon its release.

Penned and directed by Tushar Amrish Goel, with Vikas Radhesham as Creative Producer and music scored by Rohit Sharma, the film is not just another historical or period piece; it’s a cinematic debate that seeks to challenge long-held narratives. One of the core themes that fuels the story is the ongoing debate about the Taj Mahal’s origins — was it truly built by Shah Jahan, or does history hide a far more complex and concealed truth?

Set for a grand nationwide theatrical release on October 31, 2025, The Taj Story promises to be more than just a film. It’s poised to be a conversation starter, urging audiences to question, reflect, and reframe their understanding of history, identity, and freedom in today’s world.
